Dehradun: Yoga guru Baba Ramdev on Sunday broke his nine-day-old fast that sparked a political slugfest heeding appeals of spiritual and religious leaders but vowed to continue his campaign against corruption.

Spiritual leader Sri Sri Ravishankar, who met the 46-year-old yoga exponent for the third day at a Dehradun hospital to persuade him to give up his fast said, “Ramdev has broken his fast by taking juice.”

“He ended the fast in the presence of various religious and spiritual leaders”, The Art of Living Founder said.

Ramdev’s close associate Balakrishna said, “Ramdev has considered the request of hundreds of his followers and people from the saints’ fraternity”.

Balakrishna said, “He (Ramdev) will take this satyagraha forward till his last breath. (PTI)
